Question: Please tell me that you have something on House!— Brittany
Ausiello: I do! There’s an emotional episode coming up in February in which Dr. Crabby Pants bonds with a rape victim and confides something shocking about his troubled relationship with his dad. So now it can be said: It’s Dad’s fault House is the way he is. Glad that mystery’s been cleared up.
I am already stocking up on tissues to get through that episode! Hugh Laurie is one of the best actors on TV today, so you know it is going to be amazing!!!

Returning for its third season, House stars Hugh Laurie as Gregory House, an antisocial but gifted surgeon who specializes in solving baffling medical mysteries.Among his foils: hospital administrator Lisa Cuddy (Lisa Edelstein), who clashes with House over his medical duties even as she acknowledges his results.Edelstein recently talked about her role.
Q: In what ways has your character changed since the show began?
A: She’s a more-complete human being than when we started. Cuddy has been at her job long enough that now she’s trying to look at the rest of her life, trying to have a child, and it will change her even more.
Q: How would you describe the relationship between Cuddy and House?
A: They are naturally at odds with each other, but I don’t think he drives her crazy any more than she expects or wants to be driven. He is a pain in the (rear) to deal with, but he is usually right, and that doesn’t go past her.I don’t know where their relationship is going. I love the chemistry between them, but I think it would be more interesting if it didn’t work out. I don’t have a vision for how they would knock down those walls that exist between them and the outside world.They have very different tasks. His is to solve all the cases, and hers is to see that he solves all the cases without bringing the hospital down.
Q: Do you get caught up in the hospital’s life-or-death situations?
A: Well, we’re not doing Marcus Welby. It’s not about the good doctor who’s so warm and so caring. This guy, House, knows what he’s doing. He cares deeply and is committed to what he’s doing, but does he care because there’s a human being he’s helping or because it’s a puzzle? I think House would say it’s about the puzzle, but I’m not sure that is the truth.
Q: What’s the most fun for you about playing Cuddy?
A: Working with Hugh Laurie, who’s an incredible actor. And I like being on a show that is smart and funny and that I am not embarrassed at being on. It’s fun to have the same job for a few years, to develop a character.

Here’s some fresh House prattle for you kids: The show has recruited former Hackster David Morse for a multi-episode arc. According to exec producer Katie Jacobs, Morse’s character — a cop named Michael Tritter — will face off with Hugh Laurie in a battle of egos. "House is going to piss off the wrong guy, and that guy just happens to be a cop," Jacobs reveals. "[Tritter’s] really going to hold House accountable. We’re going to have some fun with that."
